Sucidava, Ancient Dacian fortress in Corabia, Romania.

The archaeological site contains fortification walls, eight defensive towers, and Roman structures situated on the northern bank of the Danube River.

Emperor Constantine constructed a 2,437-meter bridge connecting Sucidava to Oescus fortress in Bulgaria during the fourth century Roman expansion.

The archaeological site features Romania's earliest Christian basilica, built in the sixth century, alongside a Roman bath complex and military structures.

Visitors can explore the archaeological museum displaying Roman artifacts, including pottery and coins from the third to fifth centuries AD.

The Secret Fountain, reaching 18 meters underground, provided water through an intricate system during times of siege.
